ho was stunned on the side: "Second Brother, could you help me carry this bowl"Several people were talking as they left the house. In an instant, only three of them remained inside. Song Jiubian glanc...Jiang Wan still held onto Song Jiu's hand as they entered the ruined temple. Inside, everyone continued to sleep, oblivious to their arrival.

Song Jiubian quietly let out a breath, he really didn't want to let others see his embarrassment anymore.

Jiang Wan seemed to have guessed something, so she quickly brought him back to their location and took out a set of clothes from her package.

"Hurry up and change, I'll hold them off for you."

She turned her back, considerately shielding the nonexistent gazes with old clothes. Song Jiubian's heart warmed slightly as he silently changed his half-wet clothes.

After a while, Ginger heard his very soft voice, “Thank you!”

She truly loved him, even though he didn't have romantic feelings for her now. He would definitely treat her well in the future.

Ginger didn't know what a mess of thoughts was going on in Song Jiubian's head. Since he had already tidied up, she yawned and continued to rest.

Throughout the night, it rained steadily. When everyone woke up in the morning, they were delighted to find that the rain had lessened. Although it was still raining, it had become a gentle drizzle.

Song Jiuli was full of hope, "Judging by this trend, the rain should be stopping soon."

Maybe.

Ginger was not so optimistic, not because the rain had stopped, but because of the series of problems that might arise after the downpour.

For breakfast, they still steamed sweet potatoes. On the other hand, Old Song's family ate up Xu Wei's chicken last night because they were too hungry. òй.

In the morning, there wasn't much to eat, so I could only eat the wild herbs that Song Sanniang had picked yesterday. They didn't have much flavor, but they could fill me up temporarily.

However, Xu Wei didn't eat. He stared into space with a thoughtful expression on his face.

As expected, the rain stopped completely by mid-morning. Ren Bang let Xiao Deng go and check the situation first. Soon after, Xiao Deng came back with a worried face.

"The rain has stopped, but the road ahead is still closed."

We can't just wait forever, let's go through the passage ourselves!

Ren Bang gritted his teeth. Everyone couldn't afford to delay for too long, so they had to keep going.

The official said that they would continue on their journey. Although everyone in the group was unwilling, they couldn't resist and could only obediently pack up their belongings and set off.

Ginger grabbed a handful of dry grass from the dilapidated temple and, with a few deft twists of her fingers, wove it into a pair of simple straw sandals.

"Put it over your shoes."

Outside, it's all mud and they are still wearing cloth shoes which are easy to slip in.

"Wow, sister-in-law, you're amazing!"

After Song Jiuli genuinely changed her opinion of Jiang Wan, her little mouth became much sweeter. However, Jiang Wan had no time to deal with her, she just quickly wove a pair of straw sandals for each of them.

"Put them all on."

"Good."

Song Daniu trusted Ginger Lian deeply and imitated her, putting on straw sandals like she did.

Looking at them putting those rather unsightly straw sandals over their shoes, Shen Qian wrinkled her nose in disdain.

"What a disgrace!"

Even if the other people in Lao Song's family saw it, they wouldn't think much of it. Gingerwan naturally wouldn't explain to them.

On the contrary, Mrs. Chen trusted ginger's craftsmanship and also grabbed a handful of grass, "Sister, I want to learn how to weave straw sandals from you."

She didn't think too much about it, she just thought that the journey was long and her shoes would definitely be worn out. She had no money to buy new ones. If she could wear straw sandals, it would be better than going barefoot.

"I'll teach you."

Ginger taught Chen's wife step by step, and Mrs. Chen was clever and learned it quickly. She was especially grateful to Ginger.

At first, everyone was unaware of Ginger's intentions until they exited the dilapidated temple and stepped onto the slippery mud. Shen Qian tripped and fell flat on her face.

"Oh my god!"

Shen Qian was covered in mud, and collapsed wanting to rub the mud off her face, but it still stuck like a clay sculpture.

Jiang Wan couldn't help but giggle. Song Jiuli went even further, pointing at Shen Qian and saying, "Shen Qian, it's not even New Year's yet, you don't have to be so formal."

"Shut up!"

Shen Qian was furious, but facing the warning gaze of the official, her imposing air instantly vanished, leaving her trembling like a frightened quail.

"Mother, let's hold on tight so we don't fall."

Jiang Wan held Song Dajiao's hand with one hand and Song Jiuli's hand with the other, while Song Jiuli supported Song Jichi feebly.

With straw sandals on their feet, they didn't walk fast, but they walked smoothly. Song Jiuli immediately proudly praised Jiang Wan.

"Sister-in-law, you are so clever."

Another person fell to the ground, and upon closer inspection, it was Aunt Duan. Song Jiu Li couldn't help but chuckle again.

Many people stumbled along the way, and everyone envied Jiang Wan and their straw sandals.

And the Chen family, who initially learned to weave straw sandals with Ginger, also became the object of envy.

"Fortunately, my lady, you are smart and learned from the young mistress of the Song family."

Chen Ce couldn't help but feel lucky, otherwise, perhaps they would have been the ones falling to the ground at this time.

Mrs. Chen smiled gently, "All I'm thinking is that if the shoes on our feet break, it's better than going barefoot."

"I'm sorry, my lady. I made you suffer by following me."

Chen Ce felt guilty in his heart. If he hadn't married her, his wife wouldn't have to suffer like this.

Mrs. Chen's heart was touched, tears welling in her eyes, "Whatever you say, I will follow. When a chicken follows its rooster, and a dog follows its master, the joys and sorrows are shared."

Their hushed conversation was soft, but Ginger caught every word. A hint of envy flickered in her eyes.

Such a love that supports and sustains each other, it's rare to see in modern times. Alas, another day where I'm moved by someone else's love.

When Song Jiubian looked over, he happened to see the envy in her eyes. He couldn't help but think, could it be that she also wanted to hear nice things

Indeed, deep down she still hoped that he would love her.

They soon arrived at the place where the road ahead was blocked. There was only one path left, but it was blocked in the middle by mounds of dirt.

That was a mudslide caused by the loose soil on one side during the heavy rain. Actually, this place is very dangerous, Ginger instinctively reminded Renbang.

"Brother Ren, there has been a landslide here, and it's still dangerous since the rain just stopped."

"But we must go there."

Ren Bang sighed. He couldn't stay cooped up in that dilapidated temple in the corner of the village forever. Eventually, they would starve to death.

He called on everyone to come forward and help, except for children like Song Jiubian and Chen Wenhao, who couldn't just stand by.

Song Jiuch'i placed Song Jiu yuan to one side, under the care of the eldest daughter-in-law, while they went forward to help.

"Be careful!"

Song Jiubian always felt his heart pounding wildly, with a sense of foreboding.

Ginger nodded to him, and the group followed the queue as Ren Bang had already begun distributing tasks.

There were so many of them, clearing the dirt from the middle of the road was no easy task. The crowd became a flurry of activity.

"Master, there is danger!"

The little sprite, who hadn't appeared in a long time, suddenly gave Ginger a sharp warning. The shriek made Ginger's eardrums nearly deafen.

But she reacted quickly, soon realizing the sprite's meaning. So, while swiftly retreating, she shouted:

"Hurry, everyone run!"

"Ginger, what are you up to again..."

Shen Qian wanted to taunt Jiang Wan, but the next second her eyes widened suddenly. A violent roar erupted, and the mud in front of them surged towards them with a rush.he hummed a tune and even made fish porridge for them.But this good mood became even higher after breakfast, because Wen RuYu chased after her again.His attendant behind him held a large wooden chest...
